  • Show-stopping foliage: intensely ruffled leaves emerge ruby red, maturing to deep merlot with a silvery frost.
  • Airy, petite white blooms rise above the foliage from late spring into early summer for soft seasonal sparkle.
  • Compact and versatile—foliage stays around 9 in. tall and 14 in. wide, with flowers reaching about 16 in.
  • Easy-care color for containers and borders; performs from filtered sun to partial shade and even full sun in milder areas.

Ruby Tuesday Heuchera (Heuchera ‘Ruby Tuesday’) brings bold, jewel-toned color and incredible texture to shade gardens, woodland borders, and mixed containers. Its exceptionally ruffled leaves emerge a vivid ruby red before deepening to a rich merlot and taking on a shimmering silver finish that makes surrounding greens and bright blooms pop. In late spring to early summer, prolific sprays of petite white flowers float above the foliage, adding a light, airy layer that attracts pollinators and hummingbirds. Plant in enriched, well-drained soil (keep the crown slightly high), provide filtered sun to partial shade in hot regions, and enjoy a compact, high-impact perennial that looks polished from spring through fall.


Plant Description

A compact coral bells selection prized for intensely ruffled foliage that shifts from ruby red to deep merlot with a silvery sheen, topped by airy white blooms in late spring to early summer.

Foliage & Color

Leaves emerge a striking ruby red and mature to a deep merlot frosted with silver. The ruffled texture adds depth and movement, making it a standout “blender” and contrast plant in mixed plantings.

Flowers & Bloom Time

Prolific, petite white flowers rise above the foliage from late spring into early summer, adding an airy, delicate layer that complements the bold leaves.

Habit & Size

Foliage forms a tidy mound about 9 inches tall and 14 inches wide, with flower stems reaching roughly 16 inches—ideal for the front of borders and container designs.

Light Requirements

Grows well in filtered sun, partial sun, and partial shade; can take full sun in milder conditions. In hot summer regions, provide more part shade to keep foliage looking its best.

Watering

Water when the top 2 inches of soil are dry. Water deeply and regularly during the first growing season to establish a strong root system, then reduce frequency once established.

Soil & Planting Tips

Provide enriched, well-drained soil and avoid burying the crown when planting. Prevent excess winter moisture to help keep the crown healthy and foliage tidy.

Care & Maintenance

Feed throughout the growing season for best performance. Remove old, faded foliage in early spring before new growth emerges to refresh the plant’s appearance.

Wildlife & Garden Benefits

Attracts pollinators and hummingbirds, while also offering deer resistance. Listed as non-toxic to cats and dogs for added peace of mind in pet-friendly spaces.

Landscape Uses

Striking as a single accent, massed in a woodland border, or used to add dramatic color contrast in mixed containers. Especially effective alongside hostas, brunnera, and Japanese forest grass.

Seasonal Notes

Herbaceous perennial that returns reliably each year in suitable climates. Keep crowns from staying overly wet in winter and refresh mulch lightly to stabilize soil temperature.

Companion Planting

Pair with hosta, brunnera, Japanese forest grass, and other woodland favorites to highlight the ruby-to-merlot foliage and create layered texture in shade and part-sun beds.
